Title: Foam analyzing method and apparatus
Inventor: CONSTANT MARC D
IPC: G01N33/14
Filed: 1992-11-16
Abstract: A method of analyzing the visually perceptible characteristics of foamable liquid, such as beer, comprises pouring a known quantity of the foamable liquid from a storage container (28) into a clear beaker (10). A camera (12) produces a video image of the beaker (10) and its liquid and foam contents. A series of such images are periodically acquired over a definite time period. The images are electronically analyzed to derive numerical values indicating the different characteristics. A system for performing the method also is described.

Abstract: P-xylene is separated from a mixture of same with at least one other xylene isomer by contacting in an adsorption step the mixture with a Ba or Ba + K exchanged X zeolite adsorbent at adsorption conditions effective to selectively adsorb p-xylene and to produce a raffinate stream enriched in the other isomer relative to feed and thereafter an extract stream enriched in p-xylene relative to feed is recovered in a desorption step by contacting the resulting p-xylene rich adsorbent with a desorbent containing indan or an alkyl-substituted indan at desorbent conditions effective to produce the extract stream. Any contaminating C₉ aromatic hydrocarbons present in the mixture can be separated from these indan desorbents and the other xylene isomers by fractionation of the raffinate stream and the desorbent can then be recycled to the process.

Abstract: An avalanche photodiode includes a multiplication layer and a photoabsorption layer, and the multiplication layer is formed of a semiconductor superlattice structure composed of a number of well layers each of which is formed of a short period superlattice of at least two kinds of semiconductors and which can be equivalently regarded to be a mixed crystal of the at least two kinds of semiconductors. In the short period superlattice, the mini-bands are formed within the superlattice well layers having its effective forbidden band width, which is larger than the forbidden band width in a bulk condition of a semiconductor layer constituting a well in the short period superlattice. Thus, the dark current due to the inter-band tunnel transition within the same well layer is decreased. Therefore, a low noise characteristics and a low noise and high response speed characteristics obtained by a high ionization rate ration can be simultaneously realized.

Filed: 1992-12-15
Abstract: The invention relates to frequency conversion. The mixing (1) of a signal with frequency Fe and of the signal from a local oscillator (2) gives a resultant signal which includes a first component (Cu1) at the useful frequency, a second component (Co1) at the frequency of the oscillator and a third component (Ci1) the image of the first component with respect to the second. A filtering (4) strongly attenuates the third component (Ci). Servocontrol (2, 3, 5-13, 20, 21) impresses variations upon the amplitude and phase of a part of the signal from the oscillator before adding it to the resultant signal to be filtered; the variations are effected in such a way as to obtain a minimum energy of the second component (Co2) before filtering (4). Application to frequency conversion with rejection of the component at the frequency of the local oscillator. <IMAGE>

The method disclosed involved introduction of adenovirus early 1A gene (the E1A gene) products into affected cells. These products, which are preferably introduced by transfection of the E1A gene into affected cells, serve to suppress neu gene expression as measured by a reduction of p185 expression. Furthermore, the E1A gene products surprisingly serve to suppress the oncogenic phenotype, as indicated by a reduction in cell growth, growth in soft agar, as well as tumorigenic and metastatic potential in vivo. The inventors propose that E1A gene products, or derivatives therefrom, may ultimately be employed a treatment modalities for neu-mediated cancers, such as cancers of the female genital tract and breast.

Abstract: Un circuit à balayage à sûreté intrinsèque comporte un circuit d'élaboration de signaux de sortie de balayage (20), qui élabore en continu des signaux de sortie de balayage envoyés vers des objets à entraîner, ainsi qu'un circuit détecteur de défaillances (30) qui détecte si l'état des signaux de sortie de balayage provenant du circuit (20) est normal ou non. En cas de détection d'une anomalie concernant cette sortie de balayage du circuit (20), le signal de sortie provenant du circuit détecteur de défaillances (30) s'interrompt. De plus, avec deux de ces circuits à balayage à sûreté intrinsèque (41, 42), on peut commander un ensemble élément photo-émetteur et élément photorécepteur pour qu'il effectue un balayage synchrone. On obtient alors un capteur du type à faisceaux à axes optiques multiples pouvant être utilisé comme capteur de présence humaine dans un système où machines et hommes collaborent dans un même espace.

Title: A pressure balanced torsion system for a backrest and the like.
Inventor: ZHANG YUN HUI
IPC: A47C7/24
Filed: 1992-07-23
Abstract: The pressure balanced torsion system is for use in a backrest and the like. The system has a plurality of torsion action assemblies. Each assembly consists of a pair of pressure bearing plates mounted at the free ends of a torsion spring. The torsion spring is pivotally mounted to a rigid support plate which forms the back plate of the backrest. When a body rests against the backrest, the counter reactive force generated by the assembly causes both pressure bearing plates to push back against the body until the torsion is balanced, thus providing a uniform support to the body.

Abstract: Superconducting coils having a winding made of oxide-ceramic conductor wires require supports whose thermal expansion corresponds to that of the superconducting wires. Supports are therefore proposed which contain as a material an alloy essentially consisting of silver which has either been hardened by oxide dispersion or is hardenable or has a dense covering oxide layer. In the first case, supports having enhanced mechanical strength are obtained, while in the second case the supports have an insulating layer. Particular preference is given to supports which comprise both alloy types and thus ensure both high mechanical strength and good insulation. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention proposes an injection system in which two valves (2, 3) and nozzle needles (4, 5) are provided in a single holder (1), the valves and needles being subjected to hydraulic loading and controlled in accordance with the injection process without the use of screws and springs. The two nozzle needles (4, 5) of the valves (2, 3) can be acted upon by a common hydraulic closing pressure (S) which, on the one hand, acts via a double piston arrangement (D) on the nozzle needle (5) in one injection nozzle (35), that for combustion gas, and, on the other hand, acts directly on the nozzle needle (4) in the other injection nozzle (34), which is intended for fuel or ignitable oil. The two pistons (30, 31) of arrangement (D) are subjected to a defined control pressure (Z), which is superimposed on the closing pressure (S) and the combustion-gas pressure (G) during the injection process. The control pressure (Z) is used to move the one nozzle needle (5) into an open and closed position, and the other nozzle needle (4) can be acted upon, for the purpose of opening it counter to the closing pressure (S), by the fuel or ignitable oil fed in via the passage (23). <IMAGE>
